DR . MUHILAN MEN ’ S HEALTH , UROLOGY AND INFERTILITY CENTRE
Dr Muhilan Parameswaran is a dedicated surgeon and devoted family man . He was born in Klang Valley but his parents were government school teachers and this led him to explore the country as they were transferred from post to post before settling back down in the Klang Valley . He started his medical career in Manipal Melaka College and subsequently started working in Sabah , both in tertiary and district Centre ’ s , before returning to the Klang Valley .
After his varied experiences in his working career , he decided that urology would be the best way to serve the people and so he started his surgical career in Universiti Malaya doing his Masters in General Surgery before furthering his training in urology , finishing with his Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons ( FRCS ) from Glasgow .
Dr Muhilan continued his career as a urologist in Universiti Malaya , where he further subspecialised in endourology , which involves the use of scopes via natural orifice . In order to advance his training in the field of endourology , he spent time in Innsbruck , Austria , and Delhi , India , which allowed him to handle most complex procedures related to stones and prostates with no open surgery or punctures . During his stint in Innsbruck , he also developed an appreciation for the field of men ’ s health , anti-ageing treatments and male fertility . In 2010 , this was a very underserved field in Malaysia as the

main focus was on women ’ s health and infertility was mainly handled by gynecologists . He started doing basic treatments for this field within the limitations of government service in University Malaya .
However , his move to Thomson Hospital really helped speed up the development of male infertility services in Malaysia . With the help of his colleagues at the hospital , which was probably the largest fertility center in Malaysia , he set up a dedicated male fertility unit with the full spectrum of treatments available .
Dr Muhilan ’ s urology and fertility services along with TMC Fertility have grown by leaps and bounds in the eight years they have been working together and have helped a lot of families in their time of need .
The testimonials from patients and colleagues have always been the major source of encouragement and motivation for the team to push forward to attain their current level of excellence . This encouragement , together with the latest in technology , the availability of advanced lasers , endoscopes and microscopes in the urology and fertility unit , and the commitment of the surgeon are the key reasons why Dr Muhilan ’ s Urology Clinic has been awarded the Urology and Male Infertility Centre of the Year in the Asia Pacific Award at the Global Health Asia-Pacific Healthcare & Medical Tourism Awards .
